When not sure where to start, start from the beginning. My name is Tania Zakay. I’m that quiet girl that you will see in the corner of the room lost in a book. I’m also that plot twist that just happens to never shut up once you get me started. I am life’s perpetual student, and since I find it’s lessons utterly fascinating I decided to start this blog.

Oscar Wilde once said “you can never be overdressed or overeducated”, and I can’t agree more, that is why as well as sharing with you the things I learn and the books I read, I will be sharing with you some of my favorite outfits I come up with.

One of my main goals for this blog is to have it encourage self love and a more sustainable and healthy way of life. I will be sharing with you the new ways I find to keep a healthy balance, to achieve my body goals and to feel energetic, happy and productive.

Lastly but perhaps most importantly, I feel that there is no way to achieve ultimate happiness without giving. This blog will become a platform for advocacy. In the words of Elie Wiesel “the opposite of love is not hatred, but indifference”. I refuse to live my life ignoring the suffering that goes on around the world. I will speak up, and we will work together to spread love and kindness to all the corners of this earth.

All that being said I welcome you to this happy place of mine and I hope you enjoy what I have to share. I hope I can help as many of you as possible, or at least write something that will brighten your day. Good luck with your own journey, bon voyage!

Today is the 27th of Nissan in the Jewish calendar. Today is the day that has been set to remember the Nazi Holocaust. This day was chosen because it is the day the Warsaw ghetto uprising stated. This uprising is one of the main examples of Jewish armed rebellion against the Nazis. I had the chance to travel to Poland a few years ago and got the opportunity to become a witness of these atrocities, so I have become forever responsible for bearing witness. I have also met countless survivors who have made me promise to tell their stories, and I have read countless survivors who make me experience feelings I never even thought possible. One of these survivors is Elie Wiesel. His memoir Night is perhaps the most widespread testimony of the tragedies of the holocaust and one of my all-time favorite non-fiction works.

His novel Dawn however, is not a holocaust novel, at least not directly. Dawn is the story of 18-year-old survivor Elisha who is recruited by a terrorist movement in Palestine to fight the British regime actively, and achieve the creation of the Jewish state. “The Movement”, as it is referred to in the book, was created after the holocaust. Built upon the belief that armed rebellion and active retaliation, is the only way the Jewish people have a chance at survival. They believe that if they do not fight, they are giving their consent to be taken as sheep to the slaughter. In his short novel, Wiesel sets a difficult scenario for main character Elisha. He is to execute a man he does not know, and he must do it at dawn. This man is John Dawson, a British captain who is innocent, but kidnapped and sentenced in retaliation to the capturing and sentencing of David ben-Moshe, a young member of the “The Movement”.

The novel is set on a single night (that preceding the dawn of execution). However, I feel like this novel is a collection of events that led to Elisha being in the position he finds himself in. Elisha is confronting all the ghosts from his past, and is trying to justify to them (as well as to himself) what he is about to do. He is constantly encouraged with “this is war, don’t torture yourself” or “he is the enemy”, and he is trying to internalize this, but it becomes increasingly difficult for him to hate. He wants to hate John Dawson, that way he can justify being the one to end his life, but no matter how hard he tries, he does not hate John Dawson.

This is when I feel I must quote Wiesel, for he perfectly captures in just a few lines of the preface, what the whole book is supposed to trigger. He asks a series of questions, and I want to focus on two:

1) “Does murder call for murder, despair for revenge?”

2) “Can hate engender anything but hate?”

I have a history professor who, when talking about WW2, he always stresses his opinion about how he truly wishes that the US would have used the nuclear bomb on the Germans instead of the Japanese. He knows I am Jewish and deeply affected by the subject of the holocaust, so he asks about my opinion on his comment. I always reply the same way. Of course I believe Japan should not have had to ever see what occurred in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but neither should Germany. This is where Wiesel’s questions come to play.

I believe that we must take this day to reflect and understand the main lessons that the holocaust taught us. The holocaust helps us understand the need for tolerance, and so does Wiesel as early as his preface. I do not believe in revenge, at least not traditional revenge. Think about what Hitler and the Nazis wanted: all Jews dead. Traditional revenge would be: murder them back, but what good would that bring? How about a new type of revenge in which we simply survive. If someone has evil intentions, I find no better revenge than preventing their utmost satisfaction and success. So here we are. I am revenge, but my revenge is living. My revenge is kindness and goodness. My revenge is tolerance. My revenge is remembering and speaking up freely for those who cannot defend themselves, and ultimately my revenge is choosing my revenge (I hope that makes sense).

So how about we choose to be kind and accepting, and to give a damn about others?

I find that to be an awesome revenge.

I of course, highly recommend Night and Dawn by Elie Wiesel, if you are looking for some philosophy of peace. After all he did get a Nobel Peace Prize.

Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. I think we should take some wise lyrics of a Lana del Rey song that goes like: “Change is a powerful thing, people are powerful beings”. We must believe in our own power and never surrender to acts of evil. We have to constantly do what we can to help the world become a less bloody, hungry and selfish place. I hope you believe in your power to change and in your own ability to overcome human selfishness. I hope you always choose to stand up for those who cannot, and help those who cannot help themselves. And always remember the holocaust, so it does not happen again.

Man it’s been a while. University has been hectic, but that’s no excuse.

Pivot Point (and sequel Split Second) by Kasie West

OH MY. This book caught me off guard. My sister showed me this book and said it was probably not going to be my taste but I should give it a shot. I am not usually a big sci-fi nerd, but this book was pretty awesome. Something I must say is that I was surprised the sequel was just as good as the first. Pivot Point was thrilling and full of suspense, and Split Second carried on with the story gracefully.

Background:

Addie (Addison) Coleman is a Divergent (not as in the book Divergent). Her ability is known as Clairvoyant because the Divergent are very uncommon. Essentially when she is faced with a choice, she has the ability to do a “search” and take a look at both outcomes and then she can decide which path is worth taking. Addie lives in a secret compound where everyone, like her, is somehow paranormal (or “psychologically advanced”). People have all kinds of abilities, such as: telekinesis, telepathy, memory erasing, discerning, persuasion…

Suddenly she is faced with a terrible choice. Her parents are getting divorced and she has to choose who she is going to be living with. Her dad, a discerner (human lie detector) is leaving the compound to settle in Dallas, Texas. Her mother, a persuader, is staying in the compound working as a program developer for the bureau. Addie does not know weather she should leave her whole life behind to start over, or simply stay with her mom in the compound and miss her dad like crazy. When she searches it, it becomes even more complicated. Will she fall for Trevor, a Norm Dallas boy? or will she fall for Duke, the dreamy quarterback of the paranormal football team? will she give up the perfect life to save those she cares about? How far will she go for friendship, and how much are her promises worth?

Swear on this Life by Renée Carlino

I got this book as a birthday present from my best friends, so I had a feeling it would be a good one. It was beyond just “a good one”, this book was beautifully written and fun. Even my sister liked it and she usually doesn’t even start books where the main characters are over 20. I really like the back an forth between the past and present, I didn’t find it to be confusing or even annoying as I find back-and-forth books some times.

Background:

Emiline is brain farting. She’s an introductory level writing instructor at UC San Diego, but hasn’t been able to write anything publishable. Her short stories lack character, and she can’t stop fighting with her boyfriend of 7 years, Trevor. One day her roommate starts buzzing about this incredible novel by a young new author J. Colby. She does not seem to be in the mood to celebrate yet another young author’s success, but she starts to read it reluctantly. Since the first page however, Emiline finds out this book is the story of her very own dark childhood…

The Sky is Everywhere by Jandy Nelson

This book was alright. I mean it was fun and sad, but not the most memorable read. As always there is a love triangle, but it is kind of a really messed up one (like dating your dead sister’s boyfriend kind of messed up). However it did have its good parts that were really touching like some of her mourning coping mechanisms.

Background:

Lennie lives with her grandma and her weird uncle Big. The problem is she used to have a sister to add to that equation, who suddenly passed away from premature heart disease. Their mom had left when they were really young, and she never really came back. Mourning her sister is easier with someone who “truly understands” so Lennie starts seeing Toby, her dead sister’s boyfriend (to whom had secretly proposed). The innocent meetings turn out to be not-so-innocent and totally out of hand. She knows it is not okay but she doesn’t know what to do because they are both trying to get over Bailey and as messed up as it is this seemed like the way (cringe, I know).

Then comes the really hot boy at school who just moved back from France and is like this musical genius. He chases Lennie obsessed with hearing her play the clarinet which she refuses to touch. Obviously they like each other but you know that whole complicated love triangle thing.

Genuine Fraud by E. Lockhart

Weird in so many levels. Its like the author sat down and was like “I feel like writing a weird book that everyone will close and think wtf just happened”. It was entertaining for sure, but I do not think I would recommend this book unless you’re in the mood for something plainly dark and weird.

Background:

As bad as I try to explain this book, the best I can actually do is copy and paste the description from good reads, so here goes:

Imogen is a runaway heiress, an orphan, a cook, and a cheat.
Jule is a fighter, a social chameleon, and an athlete.
An intense friendship. A disappearance. A murder, or maybe two.
A bad romance, or maybe three.
Blunt objects, disguises, blood, and chocolate. The American dream, superheroes, spies, and villains.
A girl who refuses to give people what they want from her.
A girl who refuses to be the person she once was.

(GoodReads)

The Lies About Truth by Courtney C. Stevens

The cover was sort of cute, but this was definitely an impulse purchase. It wasn’t anything out of the ordinary if I’m honest. It was kind of generic, but at the same time it had it’s little Knick-knacks. I liked this book, but I can’t decide if I like it more than the points it gave to my bookstore membership card. Kidding, it was really not bad, I might even say it’s a good book. I finished it quickly and its not very long, but yeah I’ll stop rambling and get to the description.

Background:

Scared from the car accident that killed one of her best friends, Sadie Kingston is avoiding the world. Well especially her other two best friends who were in the car that caused Trent’s death, and gave Sadie her new face. Sadie begins to fall for Max, who is Trent’s little brother and another victim of the car accident. Max has an impaired ability to talk now, but he and Sadie share more than just grief, or do they?

A List of Cages by Robin Roe

Okay. So. A List of Cages by Robin Roe. It’s been maybe a few months since I read it, but it is memorable enough to still write a review about it. It is a different book from all the ones I reviewed here. If you are looking for romance don’t read this book, but if you are looking for something beautiful where you might learn something, then definitely give this book a go. Although it has it’s flaws, I personally recommend it.

Background:

After Julian’s parents passed away when he was 9, he got placed in foster care with a social worker and her son Adam Blake. Not long after they started living together, Julian’s uncle claims custody of him. Flash forward to five years later Julian starts high school where Adam is a senior, and their paths cross again. Adam has ADHD, but is popular as hell. Julian is severely damaged, and bullied as hell (especially for reading books meant for kindergarteners).

Adam makes it his mission to know why Julian acts so weird, why he is so psychosocially impaired, and why his clothes look like they stopped fitting him 3 years ago. This a beautiful story of friendship, violence, and mental illness.

That’s all for now folks.

This are the books I chose to review from the past two months where I’ve been MIA. I hope you enjoyed this reviews and are considering some of the ones I recommend. I have another review coming up soon, as well as other things I’ve been wanting to write about. I just have to find the time…

Leave me a comment down below letting me know what you think, and if you have read any books I should be reading. As always contact me if you would like to borrow any of these books and I hope you find yourself reading a new post here soon!

Very recently I read Turtles All the Way Down, a masterpiece by John Green (Review available in the book section) where he gave me a little look into the mind of a person with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). It was a really special experience that left me thirsty for more, so I found Every Last Word by Tamara Ireland Stone.

The way Tamara captivates the life of popular girl Samantha McAllister, who has been diagnosed with Pure-O OCD when she was eleven, gave me insight not only on Pure-O OCD but also on the way we approach mental illness in our society (in this case in a high school context). I for one would like stigmas surrounding mental health to disappear so I think the more people that get their hands on this book, the more progress we will see.

Seeking help when you have a mental health issue is something really important, I cannot stress this enough, and I thing this book shows just how important it is. The thing is, in Sam’s case she was part of a stable and supportive family that had the means to afford therapy. This is not the case for a lot of people struggling with mental illness. In fact a lot of the times disorders like PTSD (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder) can come after a traumatic experience that can be associated with the loss of a loved one, abuse whether verbal, physical or sexual, among other adverse experiences. Nevertheless it is important to know that there is always going to be someone who cares so you should reach out and ask for help, it takes a lot of bravery to admit that you might need it, but this type of courage can be really beneficial and healing.

If you know of anyone who needs help please encourage them always and make sure they know you are always there to help them. Be open to talk about mental health and help eliminate the stigmas. Don’t undermine mental health, because it is just as important as physical health, but don’t fear individuals who are struggling (HELP THEM!). Remember to be kind, be open and be conscious.

I absolutely one hundred per-cent recommend this incredible book, and am totally open to lending it to you (if you live in my area contact me). Please if you have read this book leave a comment letting me know what you thought about it or what book I should get next!

And the Mountains Echoed is Khaled Hosseini’s third novel, and it just happens to be that it is the third novel of his that I read. I am happy. I usually get disappointed at authors that fail to write any good books after their first, and they just become bestsellers because the author has a good reputation. Khaled Hosseini only gets better and better. I will not say this is my favorite book of his, because I feel very strongly about his second novel (A Thousand Splendid Suns, leave me a comment if you wish for me to review it), but this is definitely a read that was worth my time.

And the Mountains Echoed is a story about fraternal love. It is set in Afghanistan, yet a lot of the stories in this novel take place elsewhere. It is a mix of cultures, beliefs and backgrounds, and as a reader who seeks to learn about different cultures, this was a very satisfying book to read. This novel does include quite a number of characters, but I didn’t find it a hard read to keep up with.

Background (might contain spoilers):

Story starts in Afghanistan in 1952, in the tiny fictional village of Shadbagh. Saboor’s family has known loss. Giving birth to his second child, a daughter Pari, Saboor’s wife passed away. When he remarries to Parwana, they lose their first child Omar, shortly after he is born because of the winter and their inability to afford proper winter clothes. When Iqbal (Saboor and Parwana’s second child) is born, Saboor is determined to work as hard as possible and do anything in his power to get his family the proper equipment to survive the coming winter, but is he perhaps going too far by selling Pari off to the Wahdatis a rich couple in Kabul who cannot have any children of their own? Was it really okay to cut a finger in order to save the whole hand, if it implied leaving her older brother Abdullah (the one who truly cared for her) heartbroken forever?

Some Characters (there are far too many):

Nabi: Grew up in Shadbagh next to his twin sisters Parwana and Masooma. Becomes Saboor’s brother in law when his sister Parwana marries him. Nabi decides to leave Shadbagh and goes to Kabul, where he becomes the Wahdatis’ driver, cook and housekeeper. Nabi grows close to Mr. Wahdati, and Nila who he is in love with from the minute he meets her.

Abdullah: He is Saboor’s older son, and Pari’s protector. Abdullah is a kid who knows how to love truly and he goes to great extents for those he loves the most

Nila Wahdati: Very attractive Afghan-French woman. She is a poet who has no discretion when it comes to writing about her affairs, despite the society she lives in she remains a feminist, unreligious, and outspoken woman.

Markos Varvaris: Born in the small Greek Island of Tinos. His father dies before he is born. He has a very cold mother who fears becoming a burden, and he has dreams of traveling the world and taking pictures. He ends up becoming a surgeon and moving to Kabul to help out in 2002.

What I Learned:

Jealousy can lead you to do some pretty nasty mistakes.

Family is family no matter what (you’ll see what I mean).

So yeah I absolutely recommend this book and all others by this author, do let me know if you wish to have his other books reviewed, I will do my best with all the university paper writing and exam taking, also stay tuned for more books reviews and what I have to write about confirmation bias.

One more thing! there are only about 7 days left to support my water campaign for water.org and change lives so go donate!

I always liked John Green’s books, they were all easy to read, smart, and to some extent meaningful to me. I especially enjoyed An Abundance of Katherines and Paper Towns, but nothing ever could have prepared me for what in my opinion is John Green’s best book ever.

Turtles All The Way Down is honest, from beginning to end it is a literary masterpiece for YA. Turtles All The Way Down finds a way to portray Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) in such a way that even when it is impossible to put yourself in someone else’s place and brain, it is the best attempt. This book is more than just entertaining, and a one-sitting read, it is perhaps one of the most important books I have ever read. It takes a few hours but its a book you just know you will cherish in your mind forever, and if you forget you will read it again.

I learned about this book on one of John Green’s VlogBrothers videos I stumbled upon, where he admits to suffering for OCD himself. As you read this book you can tell that it is true, for I don’t believe it is possible to portray so well what people with ODC go through if not by suffering from the disorder firsthand. I have to say I am happy he wrote this book, not only because I got to benefit from it, but also Green is such a big deal in the YA literary world, and this book (OH THIS BOOK!) will raise SO much awareness. It will help people sympathize more with people suffering mental health disorder, and it will help errase the stigma surrounding mental illness. Young people suffering will also benefit greatly, as they will see they are not alone, and there is hope and there is help out there.

I will not give background on this book but I will briefly describe some of the characters

Aza Holmes (Holmesy) – Aza is 16, goes to public school in Indianapolis and struggles with OCD. She is the narrator of the story, and you get to experience her thoughts, mental loops and struggles. Also you get to see her personality, which she looks for constantly to remind herself she is not fictional.

Daisy – she is Aza’s best friend. She is a lively, quirky character who is addicted to writing Star Wars fan fiction. Daisy works at Chuck E. Cheeses after school, and dreams of being able to afford university. She comes from a very low income family and lives with her sister Elena and parents.

David Pickett – Eldest son of Russell Pickett, a real estate billionaire who disappeared just hours before police came to look for him, he is orphan of mother and left taking care of his youngest brother Noah. He has a great interest in astrology, and like me, in blogging.

I want to write so much about this book including a huge list of things I learned, but it is such a good book I want people to read it so I won’t spoil it. I am totally open to discussing the book with you if you have already read it, and if you live in the Panama City area contact me (in the contact session) if you want to borrow the book. Also, if you are interested in swapping books in the area or you have a recommendation for me (any genre) please let me know! Shoutout to Avi Elkeslassy for reading all my posts and getting me a signed copy, thank you so much!

Anyways, read this book, I hope you enjoy it and don’t hesitate to let me know what you think (feel free to disagree too!)

A week ago I officially started university. As a freshman I of course had expectations, and preconceptions based on what other had people told me. In this post I would like to write about how the experience has been so far, and about things you should prepare yourself for if you are starting college or university soon.

Studying and Assignments:

If you were that bastard that got through high school better than fine without opening a book (like me), you will probably expect college to be the same kind of joke high school was to you, but I would like to tell you outright that you will have to devote some time out of school to school (annoying, I know) so don’t go on packing your afterschool schedule, we all like to be productive, but we don’t want to over do it, leave some space for your friends and for your studies.

Textbook$:

I always heard books were expensive but the day I went to the university bookstore only to find out the textbook total for my five classes would be an approximate of $800 I totally freaked out. On top of the already ridiculous prices of tuition, I was not planning on spending that much money on books I would only use one semester. So I did end up buying some books but I instead of spending $800, I spent $215 and a few hours online finding the PDF versions of textbooks. Some teachers do require you to buy the physical textbook, and in some instances you won’t find cheap resellers (hence the $215), but I do recommend looking for people who are selling their old books before getting them full priced at the bookstore (if you do this check if it is the edition on your syllabus, and if its not, ask your teacher whether he or she accepts it anyways).

Professors:

I’m just gonna say one thing. Check ratemyprofessors.com to make sure what you are signing up for. I didn’t know about this, and let’s just say it would have been a good idea.

Making Friends:

If you grew up in a private school or in my case in a Jewish day school, you will notice university will be very different. Here you will see a more diverse group of people, most of whom you have never met before. I am in a very small university, so after a few days you probably have seen the same people a lot but you never really meet even a small portion of the people. I started university with one of my best friends, but the day we arrived for orientation we thought we were going to meet all these people and be super social, which you can probably guess did not happen. Even if you seem approachable and no one thinks you are intimidating, people are usually a little shy at the beginning, so if you are hoping to meet people my recommendation is to make the first move, it might seem weird but sometimes in life you just have to introduce yourself, you never know where it might lead.

Supplies:

In case you are wondering, yes you do get to buy cute supplies like you did in high school. I love school supplies so I was very excited. These are some of my favorite websites for cute supplies (you can always get things at Target too, if you got one around)

http://pilotpen.us/ – G2 07 pens are my all time favorite. And their Pilot Super Grip mechanical pencils are superb as well.

Outfit Choices:

I grew up going to school in the same uniform for basically my whole school life, so having to find an outfit everyday can seem like it’s gonna be a lot of work but I honestly have been having so much fun getting dressed every morning. My tips for dressing are: balance comfort and fashion, you are allowed to dress down and comfortably and you are allowed to dress up (it’s hopefully a free country) but I definitely recommend something that isn’t uncomfortable, itchy, or so tight you can’t breathe. Also the A.C. will probably be on if it’s hot outside so don’t forget to carry a little sweater (if you live in a cold place it’s the opposite I guess). Express yourself, it will be fun.

I hope you enjoyed this post, and that it gave you an overall glimpse at what it is to be a university freshman. I would love to hear about your first week experience in the comment section below.

It is no secret that we often fail to give credit to the most powerful, important and necessary sources of life. We sometimes neglect all those things that are truly important, our family and loved ones included. We often forget that they are not things that everyone is lucky enough to have, and we feel entitled to those things. On this occasion I would like to talk about the luxury water is.

In 2010 water and sanitation were recognized as a human right by the UN, and they were declared a prerequisite for the fulfillment of other human rights. Human rights by definition are the rights we have simply for being human, but if not all humans have them, they become rights for an exclusive amount of humans. Human rights are universal or they are nothing, and as we see in this case in which 663 million people have no access to safe water, they are not universal. This makes up 1/10 of the world population. So while you enjoy an endless flow of water from you tap someone else is missing the opportunity to get an education in order to walk for miles to find some water (often not safe).

How many times a day do you flush your toilet? at least 6-7 times on an average day. But did you know that two thirds of the world population doesn’t have a toilet to flush? This for a lot of people means they have to find other ways to do their necessities and in many cases this means a lack of dignity for people. In my opinion everybody deserves a dignified life, what do you think?

The Facts About the Water Crisis:

The 3rd leading cause of child death is diarrhea, a majority of which is water-related.

1/3 of all schools lack access to safe water and adequate sanitation.

Every 90 seconds a child dies from a water-related disease.

Women and girls spend 6 hours each day collecting water.

At least one million people are killed by water, sanitation and hygiene-related disease each year.

260 billion dollars are lost globally each year due to lack of safe water and sanitation.

As we can see the lack of water affects everybody, but women and children are the most direct victims. The economy is also impacted significantly as a result of this crisis.

A Women Crisis

Women are disproportionately affected by the water crisis, as they are often responsible for collecting water. This takes time away from work, school and caring for family. Lack of water and sanitation lock women in a cycle of poverty.Empowering womenis critical to solving the water crisis. Involving women can make water projects 6 to 7 more times effective. When women have access to safe water, they can pursue skills outside of their traditional roles and experience greater autonomy and independence.

A Health Crisis

The water crisis is a health crisis. Access to safe water and sanitation means opportunity for improved health and the ability to help fight disease. Access to safe water means improved health for women and girls who no longer have to delay finding a place to go. It means reduced child and maternal mortality rates. It means increased dignity and reduced psychological stress for girls and women. It means reduced physical injury from constant lifting and carrying heavy loads of water. And it means reduced risk of rape, sexual assault and increased safety as women and girls do not have to go to remote and dangerous places to relieve themselves.

A Children’s and Education Crisis

Children are often responsible for collecting water to help their families. This takes time away from school and play. Access to safe water and sanitation changes this. Reductions in time spent collecting water have been found to increase school attendance. Access to safe water gives children time to play and opportunity for a bright future.

An Economic Crisis

Time spent gathering water or seeking safe sanitation accounts for billions in lost economic opportunities. Access to safe water and sanitation turns time spent into time saved, giving families more time to pursue education and work opportunities that will help break the cycle of poverty.

Now that we understand the crisis a little bit better, how can we contribute to change the situation of our fellow human beings? I have looked at many different organizations but for a while I have liked the way water.org works. Having helped over 6 million people in the last 25 years, water.org continues their brilliant WaterCredit program that consists in empowering women and families with small loans to create an access to safe water for all their necessities. I truly believe that their micro-financing techniques are a good solution and I want to contribute to make sure more people are able to obtain these loans and change their situation. We have the opportunity to help break the cycle of poverty for millions of people!

I am starting a fundraiser for water.org, please help me reach my goal by donating (even a dollar) to this worthy cause.
